SONNET.

Love makes the solid grossness musical:
All melted il the marvel of its breaths,
LIES level facts attain a lyric swell.
And liquid births leap up from rocky deaths,
Witching the world with wonder Thus, today.
Watching the crowding people in the street,
Thought the ebbing and the flowing feet
Moved to delicate sense of RHYTHM AWAY;
And that heard the ye1rning faces say,
Soul. sing me this new song The autumn

Throbbed subtly TO me an immortal tune;
And when 4 warm shower wet the roofs at noon.
Soft melodies slid down on me from the caves,

the woman realized the truth she was
frantic, and, running to the field, called

quickly spread among the neighboTs who
con gregated to offer assistance At first
the parents could think Of no way to res

but the child could not grasp II. The cry
grew fainter and fainter, and at the end OF

FASHIONS IN CATS.
The Craze for Persian, Angora, Maltese ant
Short-Haired Tables.

Inc Craze Tor Persian AnEOr8s Maltese ana
ShOrt-Haired Tables.
The Persian cat is of an exquisite
Maltese color, with long silky hair and
topaz eyes. A full ruff around her
neck and feathered ears and toes tes-
tify to her pure blood. "Dundreary
whiskers" and a tail like a banner
complete her charms, and in this de-
scription are noted the distinctions of
her breed. Not all Persians are of her
color; there are several varieties. the
preferable being pure white with
yellow eyes. Persians possess all the
cat virtues, including a gentle DISPOSE
ton, in which latter quality they excel
the Angora, their rival in popularity.
The Angora Cor Angola) is cat of
superbly dignifed manners, but its
long hair, being closely curled, is ex-
tremely hard to keep in nice order,
needing, in fact, frequent washing. 1t
is supposed to be descended from the
Siberian wildcat, and its cries are said
to be even more uncivilized and weird
than the unknown tongue in which or
binary pussies exchange opinions on
the back fence. Either of these cats is
a beautiful creature, though not so in
telligent as the short-haired kinds.
Persians are often imported, but there
are places in New York where the kit
tens may be sometimes procured at a
moderate price.
OF the short-haired eats perhaps the
greatest favorite is white with blue
eyes. If to these attractions are added
tufted ears, the animal ranks high, and
is considered worthy of a ribbon collar
and silk tassels on the tips of the ears.
The points especially desired are per-
feet whiteness without a colored hair,
both eyes of the same hue. good hear
ing (for some are deaf. and manners
not too languid. It must be said that
q cat Of this sort, though affectionate
and exceedingly ornamental in a room,
is not the most knowing of its family.
To be a thing Of beauty is quite salts
factory to the high-bred creature.
Next in favor is the Maltese, some
times called the blue, and to be perfect
it should be Of rich dark shade, free
from hint or suspicion of any other hue
Amber eolored eyes and lips and soIes
of black are equally Indispensable 70
these qualities the Maltese adds good
temper and brightness. - Harper
Bazaar.

But when an opportunity came for him

He closed the window for the old lady,
